How about your speed with the motor on about 70%?

Thanks

Running 22" x 24 pitch 3 blade nibral prop.
Cummins 5.9 QSB 480 hp
Cruise at 26/27 knots @ 17/18 gph clean bottom / dirty bottom @ 3000 RPM
which is 10% off the top.
Trolling - .55 / .6 gph at 2.5 / 3 knots
Judges performance charts are right on the money.

Why do you ask?

I thought your motor was a larger displacement and turning a 4 blade prop.
Just interested in the QSC 8.3 motor to replace my cat.It would be about the same weight as what I have and 175 more hp.

Here is mine Live lining this past summer.. Looks like 5th Tuitions but with radar (and I have manly colored curtains )

[5th Tuition]

My wife has convinced me that my curtains are not "girly" blue; but Anguillan blue. Those of you who have been to Anguila know what I mean.

Of course I have been told by her she has plans to put Palm Trees and geraniums on the dock this summer

Don't see too many Scouts around here.

I was stationed in Summerville SC and could smell the resin from the Scout factory when the wind was right. It has been a great boat! I look forward to seeing you on the crick... Spot 77!

Hell's Belle. 27' Judge, navy blue curtains, black bottom paint with closed array Lowrance and with a slight starboard list due to the quanity of canned goods usually carried on board (I need a better class of friends)

Fish out of Deale. Usually no further North than BPL and not much further south than the CP Buoy. I like fishing, not long boat rides.

After fishing we can usually be found at the Happy Harbor.

Usually on VHF #67..locals channel (it's secret, dont tell anyone).

I don't know, that class doesn't look like one I'd trade in. After all, that's what trim tabs are made for!

That's just the fate of us "mates"; we have to drink beer, while my Captain drinks Makers Mark

Wow, compared to most of you my ride looks like a moped compared to a Harley...Have to say though I love the boat and it has served me well...

1985 Shamrock CC 21'....302 inboard, keel drive...Of course being an 85 I have basically rebuilt the entire boat and engine over the last 2 to 3 years...Including the motor, T Top and much more (This pic was taken before getting all new seats last year)...This year she gets a full set of curtains...They should be done in a few weeks....

I usually run no further than Hart Miller/Rock Hall on the northern end and Matapeake/Severn on the southern end...

One hell of a stable ride and fishing platform...Kept Scott and I alive on many days when no one should have been out fishing...
